[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]i will if i am allowed.  i am tired of restaurants offering meals fit for two or more people.  i just want to eat a normal small amount of food and not have to take home half of it because it is doesn't really age that well.[/quote]

So much this!  Why must portion sizes be so large?  I don't make a plate of food that size at home; why should I eat it in a restaurant.  Went out for ice cream last night and a small = 2 scoops.  No I don't need or want 2 scoops of ice cream.  I ordered one scoop.  Apparently that's a kids size.  So be it.[/quote]

Ok that is fair.  But it isn’t like they are going to have your “Adult” meal on the kids menu anyhow.  Kids menu is pretty limited to hamburger, chicken fingers, hot dog; or if a nicer place something very plain buttered noodles, turkey and cheese sandwich.  Is that what you really go to a restaurant to eat?

We get Indian from a place that has a “kid’s thali”. It’s a limited selection, but still the types of things I might order for myself anyway. Just smaller portions. And two of the Thai places we patronize have a kid’s menu with 2-3 authentic dishes to chose from and a dessert. It’s as delicious as the adult portions and healthier in terms of calories. [/quote]

Fine for takeout, but still tacky in person.  Indian and Thai foods make great leftovers.  [/quote]
